BE WELL: Worksites

Many adults spend the better part of their day at work, so creating or improving healthy options in the workplace is critical to improving health in our community. Additionally, employers that offer a worksite wellness policy or program save money through lower insurance costs, increased productivity, and decreased absenteeism.

BE WELL @ WORK partners with local worksites to surround employees with healthy options.

We do this by focusing on the following elements which become the backbone of a comprehensive and sustainable worksite wellness program:

Employees who are breastfeeding are supported in their efforts to give their baby the best start!* Create a Designated and Supportive Mother's Room
* Enact Policies and Practices to Support Mothers
* Educate Managers about How to Support Mothers
* Educate Decision Makers on the Business Case / ROI
* Share Local Support Resources with Mothers
